Workshop Description: This workshop is for parents and professionals working with or caring for girls of school age.

While bullying is the intention to repeatedly harm someone over time and can be both physical and emotional, relational aggression is an element of bullying that is more practiced by girls through social behaviors and communication. Bullying overall occurs in a relationship where an imbalance of power exists. It includes unwelcome physical contact with the intent to harm and/or the embarrassment and demeaning of another child also can include verbal and emotional abuse. Bullying can interfere with a child’s emotional and physical well-being, lead to depression, cause thoughts of suicide, increase chances of academic failure, result in low self-esteem and negatively impact relationships with family and friends.

Join us as we learn what is bullying, why do children bully, the effects and impact of bullying, how to deal with bullying and what to do if you know of a child being bullied.
